I'm HOPING to be trying again...

I'm wondering if anyone else can relate or shed a little hope for me -

My OH and I have a lovely little one year old boy. We had been TTC for 2 years before I was able to get pregnant with him and a year of that was with fertility treatments. It is beyond words how much I have enjoyed being pregnant and being a mom. I have always looked forward to having children. Unfortunately, my OH does not share in this vision of having lots of kids - he is happy and set to have only our son. And to be honest, he would have been happy not to have any children and just sort of "went along" with TTC to make me happy because he knew how much it meant to me. I know ... probably not an ideal situation but if I went into explaining this, this post would be reallllllly long.

So now I'm feeling such desire to have another little one but OH is adament about "not having anymore". He has been saying this since I was pregnant and I have been hoping with all hope that he would change his mind. I try to leave the topic alone but now I seem to be mentioning it more and more lately and it always leads to a disagreement and to me feeling so frustrated and sad.

I can continue to hope for OH to want another child but realistically I think I'm going to have to learn how to accept not having anymore. This is just something that cannot be compromised and it is making me feel horrible.

Thanks in advance and sorry so long.

Oh sweety...

All I can think to say is that since your OH is so set on not having more, focus on your son. Be his mommy, and try to put thoughts of other children out of your head while enjoying the child you have.
